Changed template then changed all links to site r

I made changes to my template (as you do) but this time it updated all links to
site root instead of document. I am using DW4. Why does it do that? Can you set
'relative to' document instead of site root?

This has happened many times before and is a pain. Is it something I am doing,
without realising?

Yes - it's something you are doing. In DW4 (not DMX2004) if you
(inadvertantly) create ONE root relative link in the TEMPLATE page, all
links on all child pages will become ROOT RELATIVE.

The solution is a) to be very careful about using ROOT RELATIVE links (ever)
in Template pages, and b) to
get and install this extension:
relativity from Jason Delgarno

It has a dialog box and help files and it will change a single page, folder,
or sitewide from one method to the other.
